While browsing internet, many a times we come across certain things about which we like to read more. Those things may be explained on that page but we become so much interested in particular article that we search for it on other pages to know everything about that. But, sometimes we cannot make out what to search for the similar thing and end up wasting a lot of time.

Also, copying that particular keyword and pasting it to another window or writing in the Google search is a bit inconvenient. So, considering this problem, Google has come up with an extension called Google Similar Pages beta which will avoid all these problems and help you find pages similar to the page you are currently browsing.

Google Similar Pages beta is especially designed to discover web pages similar to the page you are currently browsing very quickly. When you will install it, it will ask you to access data on all sites and browsing history. You just have to click ‘install’ and it will be installed in just a few seconds.

It will only create problem when run in incognito window because Google chrome will not be able to prevent this extension to save the browsing history in incognito window. So, take care of it.

After installation, it will appear in the toolbar menu with this icon.

Now, whenever you will find anything interesting on a web page and is interested in reading more about that on similar pages, you do not have to do anything except click on this icon. Then, you browser will send a search query to Google to see if there are any similar pages for the page you are viewing. The data related to the query will be handled as described in Google’s privacy policy.

It will show the similar pages in a window on the same page where you can quickly preview and explore other pages that are similar to the one you are browsing just like this one.

Here, if i have opened the Google home page and i want to know about the different search engines like Google. Then, i will just click on the similar icon button and it will quickly give me a preview of the similar pages like ask.com, bing and many more.

For going to that page, just click on the preview and it will open that page in a new tab.
